This dress was one of the seven I took with me to Costume College this year. I hadn't had a proper chance to try out all the different ways to drape the back having only worn it a couple of minutes in freezing cold when it was finished, so I wanted to try it on before I packing. And while I was at it, I did a simple hairstyle to go with it and took a couple of photos that I thought I'd share.

A self-taught amateur seamstress sewing historical clothing as a hobby. I try my best to make faithful period reproductions within my abilities and resources. I also take great joy in sewing the entire outfit myself from shoes and stockings to hats and gloves. At least until Victorian era when many accessories get more industrialized. Mainly finished projects so updating can be very irregular.
